The fabric on that elephant looks similar to the fabrics on the Indian woman's sari. As patlini said, they are a bit unique--perhaps southern India?? Goa maybe?

I think its paint peachs

Well considering at first I thought that was a camel hiding under a rock I'm improving!!

That's an odd elephant cuz it looks like it could be at an office or apt block...but they do look somewhat similar...

This is interesting. The promo shows many locations, all but one have been visited by one or more TARs. FIJI is new. So does this suggest that TAR13 actually goes to Fiji? It could be a logical stop between Chile and New Zealand. Or more likely between NZ and Cambodia. This could account for a missing day.

wow, just got back from the mountains to find all this stuff !!!! take a week off from civilization and all hell breaks loose! fabulous.. can't wait for the new season!

as usual, you guys are amazing, ripping apart a 30sec (or so) promo to find all this info! i have been trying to catch up on all the postings, but have a couple questions that maybe someone can answer:why did the fiji thing come up, was it in the promo? does seem extremely unlikely timewise.and why astana instead of almaty, given that the photos are of almaty? just bvm's "capital" remark? or ease of flights?

And after studying that elephant, I do think it is the wedding elephant from season 12...it is live not stone after all!

At 407pm an Amazing Race promo was shown on Channel 2 (NY CBS) for about 2 seconds just afer the Jets games ended and while a commercial break was being taken at the U.S. Open Tennis tournament women's finals. I had no means of capturing it but you might be able to catch up to it.
